Every girl dreams of growing up to be a beautiful princess one day but for Kate Middleton the dream will become a reality next year when she weds Prince William in spring.
Although details of the wedding are still under wraps you can be sure that Kate's choice of outfits leading up to the big day will be scrutinised by the fashion press who will try to decipher what type of wedding gown she will choose.
We love Kate's elegance and class and her wardrobe highlights have included mixing top fashion labels with high street garments.
She has a passion for handbags too and below we delve into her handbag collection to find out her favourite styles.
Kate's recent handbag choices include a classic style in grey from Italian label Tod's, Princess Diana was also a fan of this upmarket label and even had a bag named after her - the Tod's D handbag.
To grab a handbag similar to Kate's you could try the Oufi Nisha Black Leather Holdall which is similar in style and would look stunning teamed up with a crisp white coat, black trousers and a black scarf for a classy monochrome ensemble suitable for the cold weather.
Being an English rose means that Kate loves English designers including Mulberry and Burberry.
One of her favourite handbags is the Mulberry Araline which is small, sassy and features cute tassel detailing.
Oufi hits the mark again with the Oufi Sadie Leather Cross Body Bag in funky fuchsia which is the perfect way to brighten up your winter outfits. If you're unsure how to wear such a bright colour then style it like a future princess and complement it with a pale pink top and skinny black jeans for a girly daytime look.
Kate is no stranger to formal events such as polo matches, high society weddings and royal occasions so she is sure to have a wardrobe bursting with simple clutch bags which suit every smart event.
If you're stuck for some style inspiration when it comes to understated clutch bags then try the new range from Laguna which includes the chic Laguna London Deauville Clutch in Black Leather or for an evening occasion the Aksuona Black Leather Bloom Woven Clutch adds just the right amount of sparkle.
The Askuona range features plenty of cute clutches that would look stunning with a cocktail dress if Kate was to have a fancy hen do such as the regal Aksuona Purple Satin and Gunmetal Leather Karma Woven Clutch or she could choose the Aksuona Navy and Silver Clutch to complement her sapphire and diamond engagement ring which formally belonged to Princess Diana.
